American environmentalism historically has been associated with the
interests of white elites. Yet religious leaders in the
twenty-first century have helped instill concern about the earth
among groups diverse in religion, race, ethnicity, and class. How
did that happen and what are the implications? Building on
scholarship that provides theological and ethical resources to
support the "greening" of religion, God and the Green Divide
examines religious environmentalism as it actually happens in the
daily lives of urban Americans. Baugh demonstrates how complex
dynamics related to race, ethnicity, and class factor into
decisions to "go green." By carefully examining negotiations of
racial and ethnic identities as central to the history of religious
environmentalism, this work complicates assumptions that religious
environmentalism is a direct expression of theology, ethics, or
religious beliefs.
